It will just happen: you sit on your cat because you are immersed in virtual reality and you can not see him there. A development studio ran into the same problem and is working on a solution: a tracker to make pets visible Fri.

The solution works with the HTC Vive and is fairly easy, writes the author Triangular Pixels on the site. Owners of pets who want to get a call like that comes close to the ‘playing field’ in virtual reality can gain a slight animal tracker. Which can make contact with the Lighthouses, the devices Vive tracks the location of the seat and controllers.

Then an application must display the pet in virtual reality as soon as it comes into the area where the player is in virtual reality. It still is a concept. The tracker itself already exists, but the four-person studio is still working on the software to visualize the pet. It is unknown if and when the trick as a product reaches the market. The trick is using the Vive Tracker , which will be released soon for the VR headset.
